Women are less likely to receive CPR 'because people are reluctant to touch their breasts', study finds. The fear of false accusations!

I’m a nurse in training and when I’m at clinical I avoid taking care of any female under 50.

Somehow this will be spun as entirely men's fault and another example of rape culture.

Nope.. no possible reason why men would fear false allegations.

U Penn's Dr. Benjamin Abella. 'You put your hands on the sternum, which is the middle of the chest. In theory, you're touching in between the breasts.'

LOL.... The media doesn't care about minor little details. Trial by public forum cares little for objective relevant facts. On top of that we could be accused of molestation 40 years from now when society's "morals" change again. Really how does a man prove his innocence 40 years after the fact? Yeah... best just to avoid it all together.

Even an AED requires skin contact which requires removing clothing. Well I learned he didn't need to expose my breasts to place AED pads... I am sorry madam, I was in a bit of a rush to get the AED pads placed so you didn't die.... You touched my breasts, you exposed my breasts for the whole world to see. You have caused me millions of dollars of mental anguish that will require millions more dollars of counseling. You are a pervert and an asshole.

There is the Good Samaritan law that may or may not protect the man. Do you really want to take the chance though? Lawyers are really expensive.

Not to mention the lawsuit should you happen to leave a bruise or someone things your being "creepy"....

Nope.. just stand there and do nothing.

i wont help a woman or child (save my wife and oen children) because even stopping to ser if they are in trouble at this point is to much risk. problem is if you dont save a drowning child (i remember there bring a story similar) you get called a psycopath or shamed in a diffrent way anyway. another feminist kafka trap. at some point they will have to admit that their policies are bad or that the point of their policies is this.

AloysiusC · 2017-11-13T23:38:10+00:00

Everything about this is fucked up. Just everything. Women are literally dying because of this feminist racket. They think rape is worse that murder, sexual assault is worse than death and catcalling is worse than homelessness. I wonder if those who died would agree.... if they could.

There was an interesting story about this over at The Good Men Project

Being found guilty when you are doing the right thing is tough. But, as MediaHound explains, being presumed guilty when you are saving a life is far tougher—and dangerous. https://archive.is/DRHJ0

True story. When I was in high school there was a girl who accused me of sexually assaulting her (grabbing her boobs) after I rejected dating her. The entire school believed her and wanted to kick my ass. Her father, the chief of police, even showed up at my parents house and threatened to arrest me. The whole ordeal was pretty traumatic. It wasn't until she accused 2 other men for sexually assaulting her that people stopped hating me.

Fast-forward 7 years later and I'm training to be an EMS dispatcher. I had just finished the CPR recert a week ago. I was traveling behind an SUV that was speeding on some backroads. When I came around a corner I saw the SUV flipped over and a woman laying in the grass. She was thrown from the vehicle. I quickly pulled over and ran up the hill to check on the unconscious woman. Right as I was about to check her pulse, I realized who she was. I immediately noped the fuck out of there, called 911 to report the accident and left the scene.

I found out the next day from my work that she had died. I'm not sure if performing CPR would have saved her or not, but I wasn't willing to risk touching her.

Unintended consequences.

iainmf · 2017-11-14T00:01:15+00:00

I recall an incident where a tradesman in a white van didn't help a little girl and she died. The tradesman was reluctant to help because he knew some people would think he was a paedophile.

goodfoobar · 2017-11-13T22:06:39+00:00

AFAIK this has been recognized as an issue with CPR for a very long time. That is part of the reason CPR training is often done on Resusci Anne dolls with a female figure and face. Anne dolls are what I received CPR training on.

azazelcrowley · 2017-11-13T22:09:24+00:00

This would make feminist vilification of men the 10th leading cause of death for women in the US, according to some quick math, purely from this one expression of that issue.

berger77 · 2017-11-14T02:27:21+00:00

Just did red cross training for disaster stuff. They made it very clear if you're a man doing the paperwork for a woman you are never to do it alone especially in their car.

PJackson6 · 2017-11-14T03:15:12+00:00

Quite right too. I also wouldn't intervene if I were to see children playing on a level crossing or some other dangerous place. Why run the risk of a false accusation?

aircoft · 2017-11-14T10:21:01+00:00

Too bad they brought it on themselves... It really is a shame....

BruceCampbell123 · 2017-11-14T14:34:37+00:00

Wasn't there a Japanese guy who got shitted all over for saving a woman's life for something like this?

tabbytabtab · 2017-11-14T13:19:40+00:00

That's the only possible explanation, right guys? lmao
